Is there any delay in the sound? I'd like to hook this up to a second zone on my reciever so I can still hear TV when I step outside to grill.

I have not noticed any delay in sound. I only play my stereo through it not a tv. It has no delay with my stereo. I don't think it would delay with a tv but can't tell you for 100 percent sure since I never play tv through it.

I have not noticed any delay. I have another speaker outside and they both seem to be in sync.

no delay at all..we have the speaker on a screened porch year round. It has been subject to floridas heat and humidity and works well..would definitely recommend

I have my PC hooked up via HDMI, but have to run a seperate audio cable (stupid dvi outs on my ancient graphics card) and there is no delay. I also have my chromecast hooked directly to the receiver and no issues. I'm very happy with it.

I still tried - adjusted the receiver and TV - now when i increase the TV volume and if the receiver is on - it increases the receiver volume with the same TV remote - so definitely the TV and receiver are linked - but still i don't hear the tv sound - I assigned a AV port 4 and i cant listen anything on that port 4 on the receiver. the analog sound out from tv goes to 2 and when i switch the receiver to port 2 - i hear the sound.

I do not notice any delay controlling my xbox and cable box. It has worked flawlessly and fast for me. I also use the 25 foot extender in another room and it also has no noticeable delay.

I have the same problem. The sound is so low and I have the volume up as far as it will go . I bought this for my porch and I do not use it because I can't hear it. I will send it back.

Great question. No, it has not made much of a noticeable difference for me. I have mine in a corner behind our tv. You only see the Play 5. Guests jaws drop thinking that bass is coming from "that little box". Haha. There's good settings with the sub controls. I have mine at about 3/4 of max and it rattles the house. Crank up "Pause" by Pitbull and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Hello and thanx for your reply. Yes, Zone 2 is active. I just need to know what kind of connections for audio from DirecTV receiver to Onkyo receiver. What I have tried hasn't worked. I know it is analog sound only out of Zone 2. Going to contact Onkyo and see if I have any luck.

Yes. There is a 5 minute delay. There maybe a switch to increase this, but I have not looked at the unit in a while.

I did not hook it up to the TV. The unit just sits by my elbow, and the sound is picked up clearly!

Possible setup issue. But if you did it right and use hdmi arc it may be a defect. I only hear the relay clicks from the reciever but not popping sounds from the speakers. Try muting something outside your network like the radio and iPhone through usb. If it still pops I would say it's defective.

I'm not sure if it's same problem I have. It drops off if on "mute" so I just turn the sound way down instead. I have to shut down the TV and the DishTV receiver for a few seconds then turn both back on. otherwise. The sound comes back on. I have been able to just power on the sound using the included remote.

Nope. Some TV and most decent AV systems have delay settings which can be adjusted. I just plugged in, adjusted the woofer and everything was fine.

Yes, buttt! The timing might be a little off and could sound simular to an echo effect. My sound bar is hooked up to optical connection. There should be a way to adjust this tv/soundboard timing, butt! I haven't researched this yet

I have it connected to my receiver, and thence to my speakers. I can't say authoritatively, but it seems to me to send music to the receiver as well as an HDMI cable. But let me emphasize that if you walk in front of or obstruct the direct line of sight in any way, the sound will stutter and skip, whether it's music or TV/movie.

No delay, TV is the sole reason I purchased this device. I plug the transmitter into the usb port on my TV and it is constantly charged and only have to charge the receiver occassionaly. Seem when the charge begins to get low on the receiver I get a buzzing sound (distortion) other than that I love this device.

I found the best sound was directly to my TV with an HDMI cable. I tried running an Optical Audio cable to my cable box and it caused a sound delay which was really annoying, but you can also connect the Optical cable from your TV directly to your Panasonic SoundBar, but it wasn't any better than just the HDMI to me so the less wires the better for me. Good luck with it, I love mine, I've had it a couple years now and it works great, I have another one in my theatre room.

Yes - my TV didn't have an optical out, so I ended up getting a converter; there was a tiny delay in the sound, but it was only perceptible when I had the TV audio on as well.
